Therefore, notice is given to the holders of the approved applications listed in table 1 of this document and to all other interested persons that the Director of the Center for Veterinary Medicine proposes to issue an order under section 512(e) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360b(e)) withdrawing approval of the applications, and all amendments and supplements thereto, on the ground that the applicants have failed to submit the reports required under § 514.80(b)(2).
In accordance with section 512 of the FD&C Act and parts 12 and 514 (21 CFR parts 12 and 514), the applicants are hereby provided an opportunity for a hearing to show why the applications listed in table 1 of this document should not be withdrawn (and the corresponding regulations revoked) and an opportunity to raise, for administrative determination, all issues relating to the legal status of the new animal drug products covered by these applications.
An applicant who decides to seek a hearing shall file the following: (1) A written notice of participation and request for a hearing (see DATES), and (2) the data, information, and analyses relied on to demonstrate that there is a genuine and substantial issue of fact that requires a hearing (see DATES). Any other interested person may also submit comments on this notice. The procedures and requirements governing this notice of opportunity for a hearing, notice of participation and request for a hearing, information and analyses to justify a hearing, other comments, and a grant or denial of a hearing are contained in § 514.200 and in part 12.
The failure of an applicant to file a timely written notice of participation and request for a hearing, as required by § 514.200 and part 12, constitutes an election by that applicant not to avail itself of the opportunity for a hearing concerning the proposal to withdraw approval of the applications and constitutes a waiver of any contentions concerning the legal status of the new animal drug products. FDA will then withdraw approval of the applications and the new animal drug products may not thereafter lawfully be marketed, and FDA may begin appropriate regulatory action to remove the products from the market. Any new animal drug product marketed without an approved NADA is subject to regulatory action at any time.
A request for a hearing may not rest upon mere allegations or denials, but must present specific facts showing that there is a genuine and substantial issue of fact that requires a hearing. Reports submitted to remedy the deficiencies must be complete in all respects in accordance with § 514.80. If the submission is not complete or if a request for a hearing is not made in the required format or with the required reports, the Commissioner of Food and Drugs (the Commissioner) will enter summary judgment against the person who requests the hearing, making findings and conclusions, and denying a hearing.
All submissions under this notice of opportunity for a hearing must be filed in four copies. Except for data and information prohibited from public disclosure by law, the submissions may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management (see ADDRESSES ) between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, or on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov.
This notice is issued under section 512 of the FD&C Act and under authority delegated to the Director, Center for Veterinary Medicine, by the Commissioner.
Dated: December 10, 2012.
